I have also installed this version for testing the Czech translations. And I have found some bugs. The biggest hangs on admin page, becouse I have send it from wrong address. Here are some more:
- The admin messages doesn't have MIME headers at all:
MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-2 Content-transfer-encoding: 8BIT
this is vitally needed to be in czech emails.
Mailman crashes if there is not localized html template for some page. I think it should print only a message or better, use english one from /en/ tree.
in file crontab.in is broken this entry
At 9AM, send notifications to disabled members that are due to be
# reminded to re-enable their accounts. 0 9 * * * /usr/bin/python2 -S @prefix/cron/disabled
there should be @prefix@
in README.POSTFIX is
Run the genaliases script to initialize your aliases file.
% cd /usr/local/mailman % bin/genaliases
but it doesnt generate postfix aliases without setting MTA = 'Postfix' before.
it is not a bug, but the PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL should be settable per list.
Hypermail seems be not working, but I am using MHonArc, so I am not sure.
But I see, Mailman 2.1 will make revolution in mailing list management.
cheers dan

I think I've fixed most of these. But it's error prone so some may be missing. I think I might need to put more smarts into the Message.UserNotification class. :(

Hmm, do you have any more details? I can't seem to find one that crashes.

Got it.

Hmm, yeah, but so far I'm avoiding this. How important will this be?

Do you mean Pipermail? Seems to work for me.

for example:
Content-type: text/html <--- this is also wrong too, it shouldn't be seen in output, it is http header.
Bug in Mailman version 2.1a4
We're sorry, we hit a bug!
If you would like to help us identify the problem, please email a copy of this page to the webmaster for this site with a description of what happened. Thanks!
Traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/mailman/scripts/driver", line 86, in run_main main() File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Cgi/admin.py", line 85, in main Auth.loginpage(mlist, 'admin', msg=msg) File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Cgi/Auth.py", line 58, in loginpage }, mlist=mlist) File "../Mailman/Utils.py", line 477, in maketext raise IOError(errno.ENOENT, 'No template file found', templatefile) IOError: [Errno 2] No template file found: 'admlogin.html'
I have figured this out, becouse there are some new templates in /en/ directory, which are not translated/localized in other supported languages. In gettext is it OK, not found translation=use original version.

Not very. I have also some official lists for uni and some unofficial for friends. The unofficial are archived on another machine(s). But it is also possible send redirect while client accesses not locally archived maillist archive.

It has sayd somethink about HyperArch.Article, but I am now not able to reproduce it. It was probably only some temporary problem.
